Trade Fees:
Online
trade fees vary depending on the trade amount, type of security
traded, and the stock exchange traded on. We cannot provide a
fees list for trade fees since it varies so much from security
types and from one market to another, however, we can say that
their online brokerage fees range from US$50 to US$75 per trade
depending on the security traded and the market it is traded on.
However, when trading no-load mutual funds, the fund company will
generally cover the trade fee.
